Anti-Japanese War: You drove me away, and now you want me to rescue you?

Chapter 157



Boom!

Everyone present was stunned.

Although they had known that an armored unit was approaching quickly, no one expected that the equipment of the unit in front of them would be so powerful.

Let alone the subsequent trucks and artillery vehicles.

The seventeen tanks alone were enough to shock people!

Those were all powerful mobile artillery platforms!

Even Lu Zhixian seemed extremely excited at this time, and his eyes were fixed on those huge medium tanks.

"Regiment, regiment commander!"

At this time, Zhou Weiguo finally calmed down and hurriedly asked everyone's doubts: "What kind of tank is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

"I haven't seen it either!"

Chen Feng's eyes were also full of curiosity.

In the Anti-Japanese War Regiment, the most knowledgeable people besides Lu Zhixian were naturally Zhou Weiguo and Chen Feng. Even these two people didn't recognize the tanks in front of them, so naturally no one knew the rest.

At this time.

The introduction of the system suddenly sounded.

Lu Zhixian did not hesitate at all, and said excitedly: "Brothers, this is the latest tank secretly developed by the United States, and it is currently designated as the M4 Sherman medium tank."

"M4 Sherman medium tank?"

"Yes!"

Lu Zhixian nodded.

According to history, the Sherman medium tank was put into production in 1941 and officially put into use in 1942.

But now that it is a system reward, there is no need to worry too much about the fast-forwarded two years.

"Captain!"

Yang Zhihua and others couldn't wait to ask: "Tell us about its performance."

Almost everyone present looked at these tanks with extremely hot eyes!

"No problem!"

Lu Zhixian took a deep breath and said loudly again: "This M4 Sherman medium tank has not yet been put into formal use worldwide. The batch we have purchased is a primary model, but although it is a primary model, it also has extremely strong performance. First of all, we can see that it is equipped with a 75mm caliber gun, which can carry armor-piercing shells, high-explosive shells and other types of shells. In addition, there is a 12.7mm M2HB anti-aircraft machine gun and two 7.62mm MA1919 A4 heavy machine guns can greatly supplement its frontal output capacity! "

"Oh my God!"

Yang Zhihua was immediately excited and said: "These tanks are really mobile bunkers! Who can withstand this firepower output?"

"Yes!"

Han Shaogong couldn't help but nodded and said: "One main gun plus three auxiliary machine guns! If this tank rushes into the infantry formation, I'm afraid one tank can easily destroy a battalion!"

"Hiss——"

The rest of the people present couldn't help but take a breath.

"That's right!"

Chen Feng quickly asked: "Captain, what about its defensive capabilities?"

Lu Zhixian introduced without hesitation: "The thickness of the armor of this tank is also good. It uses homogeneous steel, which has much better process performance than ordinary steel. Moreover, its front armor is as thick as 75mm, and even the weakest part is 12mm, which is far from the thin-skinned tanks of the devils. As long as it is not hit by the weak position, the front can completely reach the regular armor-piercing bullets of the devils!"

"Too strong!"

Everyone exclaimed immediately.

Of all the cadres, Zhou Weiguo is the one who knows the most about tanks. After all, he is a top student of the military academy who studied in Country D. Hearing this, he was full of admiration and said: "The comprehensive performance of this medium tank is indeed quite strong. Although it may not be the strongest if it is placed on the European battlefield, it is definitely a sledgehammer to kill a chicken against the thin-skinned tanks of the devils!"

"That's right!"

Lu Zhixian also smiled and nodded.

He added again: "The overall performance of this tank is really good. It only needs a team of five to operate it. Its own forward speed is not slow, reaching 39 kilometers per hour. The most important thing is that this tank is reliable and durable, with very few failures. It is definitely more than enough to deal with the devils!"

Huh!

At this time.

I saw this armored unit quickly came in front of them.

Crash.

All the people in the entire armored company quickly got off the car.

Then.

They quickly moved together and gathered, and an officer quickly saluted, and then shouted loudly: "Report to the commander! The armored company reports to you. This company has a company headquarters (2 tanks, an M2 half-track truck, and a Willys Jeep), three tank platoons (5 tanks per platoon), a maintenance department (two M3 half-track trucks, a Willys Jeep) and a logistics department (two GMC6X6 trucks, a Dodge M6 artillery vehicle), 156 people are expected to arrive, and now they are waiting for the commander's dispatch! "

"Very good!"

Lu Zhixian quickly returned the military salute and said excitedly: "Pass my order for the entire company to enter Heifeng Village!"

"Yes, commander!"

Soon everyone got on the car again.

Boom!

The tank started.

The truck roared.

The entire armored force entered Heiyun Village from the back mountain in a mighty manner!

"Commander!"

At this time, Chen Feng was already extremely excited, and hurriedly said: "The strongest part of the Seventh Brigade of the Japs is their armored squadron, but most of the tanks and chariots they are equipped with are not very good. Now that we have such an armored force, we don't have to worry about the Japs' attacks anymore!"

"That's right! Our combat effectiveness has definitely improved significantly!"

"The reason why the Japs were able to run rampant in the past was that the anti-Japanese armed forces could not resist their armored forces at all! Now we can completely beat them up! ”

“To be honest, if we were just defending before, we would have had many ways to deal with the devils, but we really lacked the ability to attack head-on, especially when facing those tanks. Now with this batch of Sherman medium tanks, we can really crush them completely!”

“…”

Everyone present was very excited.

No one expected that at this critical moment they actually had their own armored forces, and it was a whole company.

At this time, Lu Zhixian was also immersed in that joy. He couldn't help but smile and said: "The arrival of the armored forces has indeed greatly improved the combat capability of our regiment. After all, no matter how powerful the various artillery is, it can only exist in positional warfare. These Shermans are all mobile shells, which are absolutely the most suitable for attacking. However, we have to hurry up and train the subject of infantry-tank coordinated operations. ”

“Regiment Commander!”

Han Shaogong suddenly said: "Now I am a little bit looking forward to the devils coming to attack us quickly!"

“Hahaha! "

This instantly caused laughter among the people around, and even Zhou Weiguo couldn't help but say: "What Lao Han said makes sense. I'm looking forward to the day when we can defeat the Japanese Seventh Brigade!"
